This comes after Germany announced on September 18 that it would stop new exports of weapons to Israel while it addresses ongoing legal challenges related to arms sales. According to a Reuters report, last year, Germany approved arms exports to Israel amounting to 326.5 million Euros ($363.5 million), marking a significant tenfold increase from 2022. Consequently, Germany's decision reflects growing scrutiny over military support to Israel amidst rising tensions in the region.
